Shadow Dance ..Pastel..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews



Another unframed pastel close focus of eucalyptus leaves.

I am loving this process of overlaying an abstraction of colors over the subject. I do this in my app Sketch Club on my IPad.

It gets me out of the ‘color doldrums’ and can totally surprise the eye..

This one is a pastel on Sennelier La Cate sanded paper..
It measures 14.5” x 19.4” unframed.
$350 plus S/H

Bangalay Corroboree..Pastel..Texas Artist..Rae Andrews


I had Aboriginals in mind when I painted this one. in their language, BANGALAY means Eucalyptus Tree and CORROBOREE means an event/ dance..hence the title..

**** I have since discovered that the language can differ regionally (throughout Australia )and for the species of tree ..

So BANGALAY might be incorrect in a general sense , but for the sake of this painting I will keep the title as is..



19.5” x 25.5”
Pastel on Sennelier La Carte Paper
$800 (unframed) $1200 (framed)  plus S/H

Sea Breeze...Pastel Abstract.. Texas Artist.. Rae Andrews



SEA BREEZE began with a liquid throw of paint, and the I found shapes to enhance with my pastels over the top.

I think you all know how I love to create 'confusion' and play with DEPTH in my art. Well this one was a great deal of fun, although at times it almost drove me to drink!

It is a 16" x 20" pastel on a Richeson sanded board.
$300 plus S/H

Tangled Treasures..Water Media



This will be the last for today of my 'Memory Lane Posts'.

I used to do a lot of textural paintings, implied texture as well as collage. This has both techniques in it.

Again the white ink overlays are a feature I loved doing them then and still do.

I remember I did not have a thing in mind with this as a start. I just played with texture then found the subject. A much practiced strategy with me over the years.

The circular shapes and parts of the same, help lead the eye through the painting. I quite like this one.

It has sold now and I truly cannot recall when I painted it, but it has to be in the mid 1980's.
Oh, it was on CANSON paper not a watercolor paper and I think the color was a blueish background.

This image is 18" x 9.5" and has SOLD!

Leaves...Watercolor and Liquid Acrylics



 I love to challenge myself with design.

 I am about to teach a small workshop using watercolor and liquid acrylics...(and if you know me), I had to do some 'test' paintings. This is one of those.

I don't like to pre-draw images for the most part, and instead let my paints run and fold into each other making interesting designs into which I can 'fit' a subject ...

I used Golden Liquid Acrylics with a small squirt bottle to start this one. If one leaves a lot of white and interesting negative shapes, they have a better chance of finding a subject and bring it into focus.

I worked with WATERCOLORS to get the leaf shape, and of course, NEGATIVE PAINTING.


                                               This is a 7" x 12.5" image (unframed)
                                                                  $150 plus S/H

                  Prints of this image can be purchased through Fine Art America:
